Dabur Amla Hair Oil (300ml)

This product will not stop hair loss although it may say so. This just conditions your hair to be more elastic and smooth. Lessen the breakage of hair...it also makes hair appear slightly darker in colour. Who knows why hair falls out. Hereditary issues, vitamin deficiency, hormones and my favourite !!!STRESS!!!. Im indo guyanese with wavy frizzy hair naturally. This works to tame my hair...you oil the hair thoroughly top to bottom. Leave on 1hr to overnight. I leave for 3-4hrs and wash my scalp well with a really cleansing shampoo and condition as usual. I noticed people complaining about the scent. Its a medicinal oil smell, indian gooseberries...i dont think its that bad...for me it works. I havent cut or trimmed my hair in over 2 years and it doesnt have split ends or looks dried out. I think for anything to work you need consistency.... I wash and oil my hair 2x a week in the summer/ sweaty months and 1x a week in the colder months. If anyones interested in other indian hair oils... Ill break them down for you Vakita Cactus oil smells amazing and it heavy weight its meant to be used before shampooing. But you can use a few drops on dry hair to tame. Vatika Black seed oil smells great and can used as a leave in after your hair is dry to tame frizzies Vatika Garlic oil smells sooo good like lemon and rosemary , heavy weighted and can be used before shampooing. And after a few drops on dry to fight the frizzies. Mahabhringraj hair oil is a medicinal oil you use only on the scalp to help with dandruff. You must wash it out. Navratna oil is for cooling and tingling of the scalp..meant to help with waking up the scalp. Must be washed out. Ive used all these oils and they all have their benefits. You can mix them as you like. I use mahabhringraj oil on my scalp for dandruff and the rest of the hair gets amla,garlic, cactus depending on my mood... Im going to tell you the best indian hair advice I know to growing out your hair....oil it faithfully & always keep your hair secured ...like in a bun with spiral bobby pins or an octopus clip or a braid with no tangle bands. It shouldnt be too tight, but firm. Its keeps hair from snarling and breaking. I know its not superstylish but it really does save your hair especially if your going to grow it out to your mid back or to a longer length and beyond . And when you do wear it out on occasion all the girls and boys will envy your soft gorgeous long hair... Ps in the pic my hair is oiled and awaiting its shampooing plus i like this pose reminds me of a troll doll.

It has a really bad smell , but definitely make my hair grow. I know there’s a difference within a week

I had my hair dyed from Light blonde to dark brown at a salon and I am not sure if it was the dye process or what by my hair was horribly straw dry and brittle/breaking. I decided after a month to get a shorter long pixie style cut and dyed my hair back to blonde. I knew going back to blonde on already over processed hair would make my hair even worse but I really didn't like the brown. (anyway) a friend of mine recommended this product to help my dry itchy hair. I was afraid at first because I was warned the smell is not the most pleasant. I have to say if you can get past the smell this stuff will cure many hair aliments including dandruff, dry hair and breaking hair but use as directed. What I liked: The oil is dark but did not turn my almost white hair green or darker. The directions state to keep the oil on for one hour and wash out. Because of the state of my hair I left it on over night using it the first time. I would recommend wearing a hair cap if you do this because the oil will get on your pillows. - After washing the oil out and blow drying my hair my hair I was very pleased and very happy with the results my hair was baby hair soft, anyone who has bleached or colored their hair knows that straw feeling your hair gets. This stuff took it away and somehow made my hair appear fuller. Also my hair stopped falling out I used to have strands of hair everywhere and an itchy scalp, this took the itch out of my scalp and I notice I don't have so much hair in the drain after using this for about 1 week. You really only need to leave it on for an hour as stated on back to get the full impact. The one con is the smell but you do get used to it. In my opinion it smells almost like a light gasoline smell or rubbery smell, it is not so bad that I can't stand it but I can see why others don't want to use it. I found that if you shampoo your hair with a good shampoo the smell does go away after words. This product is really the best oil I've ever used and since using it have received many compliments on how "great" "healthy" my hair looks so I would rather deal with a funny smelling head for an hour then hair falling out.

Just trying this one out. I usually use the Amla oil by SheaMoisture. I can already tell readers that there's a noticeable difference in the scent. SheaMoisture product smells really pretty. Dabur smells... not-pretty. However, the quantity is higher for a similar price. I'll post an update later. Hoping the coloring in the oil doesn't damage my bedding 😬. We'll see

This hair oil smells so good and genuinely has helped my hair grow so much it’s easy to apply and it lightweight it makes my hair so soft afterward

Just like everyone that thought this oil would make your hair grow, so did I. Unfortunately, that wasn’t the case for me. After about 2-3weeks of using this product, I began to see bald spots on my head (see pics). I immediately stopped using the oil and went back to my natural options (raw coconut oil, “Now” and Shea oil). The bald spots started off as small as a penny, then eventually kept growing with time. Since the bald spots kept growing weeks after I stopped the use of this product, I started feeling depressed thinking I had Alopecia (a disease that eats at your hair). My bald spots often became very dry/flaky, forcing me to moisturize it at least twice/day. I recently went to Swedish hospital and my doctor told me that I in fact do not have Alopecia which was a huge relief. The doctor told me that I have a fungus and provided me medication. I am hoping and praying that my hair will one day grow back thick and strong as it used to be. I have not stepped a foot outside without a hat on my head since the first time I spotted my bald spots in early May. 😭😭. I wish I would have stuck with my natural products instead of using this damn oil with all these damn chemicals/dyes! I will post pics of the beginning stage and now. There’s about 4-5 bald spots/damaged areas on my head. #Holisticlife!

Bought it to help my hair grow but could not deal with the smell. I did exactly what the bottle instructions said to do but the smelled stayed for like a week.

When I say it smells good and it’s really made my hair soft and growing can’t wait to order more I recommend yall get this oil but make sure u following the directions cause it will have your hair itching if u don’t wash it out and then after that use it 3 times a day and it will be fine
